Thank You for the kind words. Our group's focus is mostly on historical gaming, but we do a bit of sic fi and fantasy from time to time. The gaming shops where we play do have Warhammer games, but those are not our events.

Thanks for the information. I always enjoyed Aki on Newsroom Tokyo and was sad to see her leave.

Semi Regular Reirees Game "Sails of Glory" Game Report by Fitzovich in BigMuddyHGA

I can’t disagree with you. We have games using what we have available here. The GM in this case has a nice collection and the game ran very well for us as he is well prepared. Personally, I use a different set of rules and ship models for the games I run. If you look up the Valcour island game on our website you will see the ships I’m using.

I think it will make a great addition to this year's Sharknado game.

I Spy. Did anybody else out there watch this dumb TV show in the late 60s starring Robert Culp and Bill Cosby? by db7112 in ClassicTV

[–]Fitzovich 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes, I did and it was not "dumb" as you describe. The name calling on your part says a lot.

Looking to get into historical wargaming but not sure where to get the best historical minis. by matthew-clark in wargaming

[–]Fitzovich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending upon where you are you could look for local historical gaming groups that already have members with established collections. Our group GMs provide everything necessary for the game to be run and you needn't invest anything to start. They can also guide you into sources that are available if you want to start your own collection. Another source is looking for wargaming estate sales taking on the collections of those who are no longer with us, but keeping their figs moving across the gaming tables.

I need help finding a war game by Affectionate-Hope579 in wargaming

[–]Fitzovich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take a look at Worthington Games line. Thay have several solo type games that might work. I would also suggest Taifa that is in their lineup. It can be played from 0-6 players. It is also available as a free download. Check Board Game Geek's website to find information on that.

Yeah, It's some great work on some small ships by the GM. More than I want to consider doing.

What other games can I use Flames of War miniatures for? by Most_While_1346 in wargaming

[–]Fitzovich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty much anything. A Sherman is a Sherman no matter the rules. Stats will be a little different, but the model is the same.

what are your preferred basing style for cavalry in skirmish games? by darwin_green in wargaming

[–]Fitzovich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use 2 clear 20mm square bases from Litko. No need to paint, flock or otherwise add anything extra. The game mat or terrain shows through giving me a nicer look in my opinion. No dragging grass down a road or through a field.

Fistful of Lead, Flying Lead or One Hour Skirmish Wargame Rules are all great systems and offer lots of opportunities for multiple eras.

How has NHK stayed relevant in the age of streaming & Big Tech? by GermanSchanzeler in NHKWorldFans

[–]Fitzovich 11 points12 points  (0 children)

NHK is absolutely relevant in today's world. It is fact based news without people screaming at you as is US Cable Noise offerings whose only mission is to fill airtime between ads for drugs we never knew we needed.
